8Dawn Nickel, one of the founders of the international movement and nonprofit organization SHE RECOVERS® Foundation, presents a daily meditation book that acknowledges the specific needs of all women in any type of recovery and includes important topics such as substance use, codependency, love addiction, workaholism, eating disorders, and beyond. As a survivor of intimate partner violence and cancer, with over thirty-five years of recovery from substance use, Nickel recognizes the greater risk women in recovery have for developing a co-occurring disorder. “Recovering from all the things” is the phrase she uses to recognize the complexities behind recovery. In this book, Nickel provides help for anyone who identifies as a woman who is also in recovery or seeking recovery in any area of life. Those struggling with substance use, mental health, and related life challenges will benefit the most from her insightful, nonjudgmental writing. These daily meditations will inspire hope, reduce stigma, and empower all women in recovery.

92Quit Smoking Hypnosis: The Sleep-Shift MethodA Deep Sleep Program to End Nicotine Cravings and Break the Addiction CycleWhat if you could quit smoking without willpower... while you sleep?Most people believe quitting smoking is about discipline. But the real problem is the automatic habit loop in the brain. Cravings appear, stress triggers the urge, and before long the smoking addiction cycle begins again.Quit Smoking Hypnosis: The Sleep-Shift Method uses deep relaxation and guided sleep hypnosis to gently reprogram the subconscious patterns that drive nicotine cravings and the smoking habit. Instead of forcing yourself to resist cigarettes, this program helps the mind release the habit naturally—because what was learned can be unlearned.The Sleep-Shift Method works in three stages: Release the tension of the smoking habit – Deep relaxation reduces the emotional pull of nicotine cravings. Break the habit loop – Learn to separate cravings from identity so urges weaken and fade. Install the identity of a non-smoker – Subconscious reinforcement builds the calm confidence of someone who simply does not need cigarettes anymore.This program works during the natural hypnagogic state between waking and sleep, when the subconscious mind becomes more open to change. As you relax and drift into sleep, new patterns begin to form—allowing the smoking habit to weaken without struggle.Many listeners notice reduced nicotine cravings, greater calm during stressful moments, and a growing sense of freedom from cigarettes.Just press play, relax, and allow the change to begin.
